Back from the Future Bloghop



I'm double booked for Friday! I knew that there'd be no way that I'd be able to post this during the week, so I am on a blogging marathon-already posted for another blog hop tonight.


You're up before dawn on a Saturday when the doorbell rings. You haven't brewed your coffee so you wonder if you imagined the sound. Plonking the half-filled carafe in the sink, you go to the front door and cautiously swing it open. No one there. As you cast your eyes to the ground, you see a parcel addressed to you ... from you.

You scoop it up and haul it inside, sensing something legitimate despite the extreme oddness of the situation. Carefully, you pry it open. Inside is a shoebox -- sent from ten years in the future -- and it's filled with items you have sent yourself.

What's in it?

1. A blanket that I've had since I was a newborn-it's in good condition!
2. My iPod
3. A pair of fuzzy socks (hey, you can never be to old for them)
4. 'Tuesdays with Morrie'
5. A dvd of Mean Girls- it'd be like reliving high school all over again.
6. 5 scrapbooks that I've put together over the years
7. My baby book that my mom made for me
8. Journals and letters from elementary and middle school
9. Middle school yearbooks
10. High school yearbooks
11. My troll collection

    I agree with Tyrean. I'd like to get a box like that.

    Number eight sounds like it would be a gold mine.

    Fuzzy socks are the greatest! You're never too old & you can never have too many. ;)

    Cool that you have a troll collection. My cousin had one of those... way back in the 70's. I'd love to see your scrapbooks. Bet your life is beautiful.

    Love that you have scrapbooks in there! I'd like to start scrapbooking one of these days.

    You'd better put those socks on, and brew yourself a BIG pot of coffee, because it's gonna take you a while to browse through that pile of treasures.

    Lovely sentimental treasure- and I am wearing one of my pairs of fluffy socks right now, so must strongly agree with that :-)
